Also if you wanna know anything about this vape, ama. Been using it a lot over the last couple weeks since I got it and have dialed my technique in pretty consistently at this point.

Dani Fusion just got in, pictured with a Dyna to show the form factor, since most people will be familiar with that.

First impressions: It arrived dirty af. Had to clean it thoroughly and particularly scrub the cap with baking soda + vinegar for a while to get it looking good, so that was a bit disappointing. Heating to the click gives me warm air pretty much. I haven't quite figured it out over my first 2 sessions and only managed to get some visible vapor for one single hit, heating ~5-10s after the click. I might need a bit of a beefier torch for this one to really make it shine? Build quality seems very solid and it looks and feels classy, although if you look closely, you'll see some small machining flaws. The leather case is nice for the metal stem (not pictured), unfortunately it's a bit tight for the wood stem. It's great for taking off the hot cap and lying that down somewhere though and it looks great, so I'm hoping it'll wear out a bit and get looser over time. We'll see.

Not sure yet how I like it overall, first sessions weren't great but then again every vape and especially every butane vape has a learning curve and some of the trickier ones to master I grew to love over time. I might come back for a little review once I've used it more extensively :)

Finally got a decent paying job, need to send in my BAKx for repair and my go-to vape shop is having a sale. Enough reasons for me to splurge a bit and add another piece to my collection. Been eyeing the Dani line up for a while now and I'm looking forward to playing around with the Fusion!

Honestly, I sometimes start pretty low temp to get the most out of the terps, but I always finish on high temps. For bong rips, I go high temp straight away.

As for this chart - there's been much debate around it, the accuracy is questionable at best. As soon as you have multiple compounds with different boiling points, it goes out of the window anyway because that changes the boiling points of all substances in the mix.

Yeah, it's a thing. Some factors I've identified: How close you vape to bedtime - I try to leave at least 2h in-between nowadays, more is better, up to 4h especially for occasional users. How much water you drink - stay hydrated. What you eat - satisfying your munchies with unhealthy shit will definitely make you feel worse the next day.

Imo it's mostly down to sleep quality moreso than actual after effects of the drug. Tbf that's a big part of alcohol hangovers too.

I like my V3 Pro for on the go because it's stealthy and gets the job done. People just think it's some kind e-cig and don't even give me a second glance.

That said, I don't use it at home because my other options are tastier and/or harder hitting and/or smoother.

As for your question regarding crafty/mighty - personally I don't like them very the vapor isn't particularly tasty and feels a bit scratchy (a phenomenon known to some people as the "Bickel tickle"). They certainly extract well and give you the most out of your bud, but personally the only s&b vape I'm interested in ever owning it's a volcano.

Many people love their s&b portables though, my opinion is just that - one guy's opinion.

The yellow and black thing is a box mod (not sure what the model is called), powering a BAKx by lamart with a heatsink between them so the mod doesn't overheat. If you look closely, you will see the glass tube that sits within the wooden thing (aka the BAKx). That gets heated up by a flat coil that's wound around it. Once you put in the bowl part, the inner tube and your herbs and/or concentrates of choice will heat up. When you pull on it, the air almost only passes hot glass (also a little bit of cool wood) and it puts out densest, most instant vapor I've ever seen from a vape. If you check my profile, you'll find a video of the thing aswell!

Yeah, they're history. I think the cosmic extractor is a direct clone of it, but don't quote me on that.

One of the best handheld games of all time tbh.

Pretty much, solo 2 tastes better, mighty exctracts faster, and the two of them are still leading the mass produced session vape segment.

In for a hard day of playing witcher and recharging my social battery before I start a new job tomorrow.

I don't have one myself but from what I've read, they all perform at a similar level and the thinner the walls of the ball chamber and the closer the balls end up to the bud in your bowl, the better. Basically as little unnecessary material as possible as that just dissipates heat (freight train is a good example for how not to do it). Metal for the ball chamber generally outperforms other materials although the quaroma is supposedly pretty much the tastiest option in that form factor.

Cloud connoisseur zeal seems to be one of the best options for price/performance ratio rn.

But again, all second hand info here, maybe someone more qualified to answer the question will show up.

The worst is when you prepare a conversation in your head but then when you have it in real life, people ask all the wrong questions and now you don't have the proper answer prepared. So better attempt to predict every single possible way the conversation could go, that'll surely help and not just bog my brain down to the point where I don't get anything done!

I think it's a good idea to implement that down the line but for now the main priority is getting some content going. As long as the number of posts is this low, the occasional noob post is better than no new content at all imo.

Yeah, on the cannabis issue we're like a decade behind you guys at least sadly. Can't win them all, I suppose :P

When I took the video, I was still working on fully dialing in the settings so I came pretty close to combustion, but it does show off the insane vapor density that this vape can achieve pretty well.

Got it fully dialed in by now so I get the same overall performance but without combustion risk now. Although I'm happy to say I never did actually combust with it, just came very close a couple times!

So now I just gotta build up a new feed from scratch, that's the part that sucks the most. So many nice niche communities I've discovered over the years on reddit... But it was time, reddit has been going downhill for years.

Happy to discuss any of these bad boys! All but the VaporGenie see regular use. I also got an old MFLB stashed aways somewhere that I bring out maybe once a year or so for a sesh but I forgot to include it in the pic and can't be arsed to take another one rn.
